Bb               Eb    Cm
Long time ago in Bethlehem, 
       F7         Bb
so the Holy Bible say,
Bb               Eb    Cm
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ 
    Bb      F7        Bb
was born on Christmas day.
 
Bb        Eb       F      D7      Gm       C      F
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a King was born today. 
    Bb                Eb  Cm     Bb       F7        Bb
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day!
Bb       Eb        F      D7      Gm      C         F
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen to what they say,
    Bb                Eb  Cm     Bb       F7        Bb
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day!

 
      Bb                      Eb        Cm
While shepherds watched their flocks by night, 
           F7                 Bb
They saw a bright new shining star.
     Bb           Eb     Cm
They hear a choir sing a song,
          Bb             F7    Bb
The music seemed to come from afar

Bb                  Eb      Cm
Now, Joseph and his wife, Mary,
        F7             Bb        
Come to Bethlehem that night   
     Bb                Eb         Cm
They found no place to bear her child,
      Bb     F7          Bb
Not a single room was in sight.   
 
Bb        Eb       F      D7      Gm       C      F
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a King was born today. 
    Bb                Eb  Cm     Bb       F7        Bb
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day!
 
Bb                     Eb     Cm
By and by, they find a little nook,
     F7            Bb
In a stable all forlorn.
    Bb          Eb       Cm
And in a manger cold and dark,
       Bb     F7      Bb
Mary's little boy was born.
 
Bb        Eb       F      D7      Gm       C      F
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a King was born today. 
    Bb                Eb  Cm     Bb       F7        Bb
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day!
Bb       Eb        F      D7      Gm      C         F
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen to what they say,
    Bb                Eb  Cm     Bb       F7        Bb
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day!
